Yong'an Village
Li Zhenhua was very excited when he heard this. With it, cultivators can grow rapidly!
Zhong Ling waved her hand casually, and another jade slip flew in front of the dean.
"This is the instruction manual for the Trial Tower. Study it yourselves."
After explaining everything, Zhong Ling's figure gradually faded and finally disappeared.
The people present and the newly appointed Taoist temple president Ji Anbang looked at each other in confusion.
"This... is the method of immortals." An old man muttered to himself.
He had been a soldier all his life and had seen many ups and downs, but everything Zhong Ling showed him was completely beyond his worldview.
"Old Ji, this bead..." A senior executive next to him pointed at the spirit-testing bead.
Ji Anbang said in a deep voice: "Let's try both."
He walked over first and placed his hand on the spirit-testing bead. Everyone present held their breath, even the five new cultivators looked over curiously.
One second, two seconds...
Just when everyone thought nothing happened, the bead suddenly emitted an ochre light.
"Single earth-type spiritual root!" the person in charge of recording shouted out.
Everyone present was stunned. No one had expected that this dean who was appointed in a critical moment actually possessed spiritual roots!
Ji Anbang himself was stunned. He withdrew his hand and said to the people behind him, "Try it."
Next, several senior executives stepped forward one by one, but the Spirit Testing Pearl did not react at all.
"Hey, Old Ji, you are truly the chosen one!" An old man who was familiar with him patted his shoulder with envy in his tone.
"It seems that the position of the dean of Kunlun Taoist Academy belongs to you. This is God's will!"
"I don't deserve it." Ji Anbang waved his hand.
Ji Anbang was a soldier, and abiding by the rules was his first principle, so he also passed through the "Gate of Heavenly Law" like the five others.
…
In the middle of the month, night falls and the lights come on.
The public stayed in front of the screen, waiting for the "delicious vegetable shop" to start live broadcast.
The live broadcast starts on time at 8pm.
"Here it comes! Zhong Shen is finally on air!"
“Make a wish in the front row, hoping to be chosen!”
"I'd trade my roommate's twenty years of singleness for a chance to connect with him on the mic!"
In the live broadcast room, Zhong Ling sat casually on a wooden chair.
Without any greetings, she said directly: "Let's start the first microphone connection."
Then, the screen split into two, and a dim room appeared on the right.
The room was very simple, with newspapers pasted on the khaki walls and the only light source being the incandescent lamp overhead.
A boy who looked about thirteen or fourteen was sitting in front of the camera. He was wearing a washed-out school uniform and seemed a little uneasy, not daring to look at the camera.
Seeing the boy so nervous, netizens in the live broadcast room all encouraged him.
"Wow, it's a little brother!"
"Don't be nervous, brother. Tell me what you want. The Zhong God is very powerful!"
"This child looks so simple, I hope he has a good wish."
The boy seemed frightened by the barrage and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Seeing this, Zhong Ling spoke to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, tell me slowly, what is your wish?"
The boy then remembered why he came here, and he said, "Master Zhong, I, I want my mother back."
"My name is Liu Nian. I live in the countryside and have lived with my grandparents since I was a child.
They said my mother ran away from home when I was one year old and never came back.
Because of this incident, my father has been working away from home for many years and rarely comes home."
"Grandpa and grandma are old now, and their health is not good." He raised his sleeve and wiped his face carelessly, then continued:
"I want my mother to come back so that we can be together as a family and have a reunion dinner."
Netizens felt sorry for the teenager's experience and denounced the irresponsible mother.
"I cried. This child is so pitiful."
"What kind of cruel mother is this? She doesn't even want her child?"
"Abandoning her husband and children, this kind of woman is not fit to be a mother!"
"Zhong Shen, please help him quickly and bring his mother back to give her a good scolding!"
Zhong Ling ignored the comments. She needed to see the truth for herself.
Zhong Ling spread out her spiritual consciousness and came to the village where the boy lived, Yong'an Village.
She looked back and saw a van enter Yong'an Village and come to Liu Nian's grandparents' home.
This day was also the first day that Liu Nian's mother came to their home.
In order to survive and escape from here, the woman chose to endure.
She pretended to be obedient and even gave birth to Liu Nian, which gradually made the family let down their guard.
Finally, on a stormy night, she took advantage of everyone's deep sleep, used all her strength to climb over the courtyard wall, and rushed into the darkness without looking back.
She was not escaping, but welcoming a new life.
The divine consciousness continued to spread, covering the entire Yong'an Village.
Zhong Ling saw more people like Liu Nian's mother.
This seemingly simple and peaceful Yong'an Village is actually a hell on earth and a den of sin.
Zhong Ling withdrew his consciousness and said in a cold voice:
"Son, your mother is a very brave woman."
Liu Nian was stunned and didn't understand why Zhong Shen said that.
"She didn't run away from home, she returned to where she came from."
Back?
These two words caused the entire live broadcast room to explode.
"What do you mean? Back?"
"Could it be... is it what I think it means?!"
"Oh my God! If this is true, it's too scary!"
Zhong Ling continued:
"And she's not the only one."
"In your Yong'an Village, there are many women like your mother."
“They all want to go back.”
Wow!
I didn't expect things to turn around so drastically!
Netizens only felt a chill running from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads, and the hairs on their bodies stood up.
They couldn't imagine that such a heinous crime still existed in this day and age!
Liu Nian was stunned. He couldn't process such a huge amount of information. He just felt fear instinctively and felt that the world he was familiar with was collapsing.
Zhong Ling's voice softened a little: "Liu Nian, you may be afraid of what is going to happen next, but please remember that justice may be late, but it will never be absent."
After saying this, she turned to the camera:
"Qiao Jianmin."
Qiao Jianmin, who was watching the live broadcast with a group of senior executives, suddenly stood up from his chair, his muscles tensed, and he subconsciously straightened his back and shouted, "Here!"
Even though he knew Zhong Ling couldn't hear.
Zhong Ling gave the detailed address.
"I believe the country will give an explanation to all its people."
After she finished speaking, she flicked her finger, and a streak of golden light flew out from her fingertips and disappeared into Yong'an Village.
Buzz——
The villagers of Yong'an Village were shocked to find that a layer of golden light curtain, like an upside-down giant bowl, enveloped the entire village.
The chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep raised in the village can move freely, but no one can step out of the light curtain no matter what method they use.
Panic instantly spread throughout this sinful village.
Those who had guilty consciences thought that Zhong Ling wouldn't know what they were doing through the Internet, so they didn't stop Liu Nian from connecting to the microphone.
However, after Zhong Ling told the truth, they wanted to escape, but found that they could not move.
They knew the end was coming.
"No one may leave before the judgment comes."
After doing all this, she looked at the terrified Liu Nian on the screen and finally said, "Your mother will soon be able to live in the sunshine with dignity, and the country will take good care of you."
After saying that, Zhong Ling directly cut off the connection.
